Notes

Serve this with rice and garnished with lots of green onions!  You can be as generous or as stingy as you like with the Hot Yuzu Sauce!  Be sure to inhale its aroma and really savor the flavor of the sauce.  Enjoy this taste of yuzu, one of foods listed in the the 1,000 Foods To Eat Before You Die book by Mimi Sheraton!
